And since you’ll have Unlimited Access to weekly classes in Hudson, and Akron, Ohio, you’ll be surrounded by a community of dedicated students, teachers and practitioners of Yoga, meditation and more from The Spiritual Life Society.
ONE WEEKEND PER MONTH FOR 10 MONTHS; 9AM - 5PM on SAT/SUN
Don’t worry if you can’t make all sessions. Larry and Matt pioneered affordable and accessible YMTT formats where students could start whenever they wanted and continue at their own pace to complete their training. There will be a number of options if you miss a session or two, including: taking it when it is repeated next year; reviewing videos of earlier trainings; taking some additional classes workshops with Larry or Matt in person or online; or special independent study.
Since the weekends account for a total of 160 hours, you will also need to complete an additional 40 hours minimum at special workshops/classes in evening or weekend and/or online or independent study. If you wish an additional specialty certification such as Teaching Meditation, Teaching Chair Yoga, or Teaching Yoga Nidra, you will need additional hours, too.
